True Hybridized Potato Seed-Ball Seed. 
Thousands never saw a potato seed-ball. Thousands 
more have tried in vain to get the seed. _ I have the 
pleasure of offering a VEItY choice strain of Potato 
Seed—the product of numerous hybridizations between 
many of the best new and old varieties in cultivation. 
Growing NEW SOKTS from the 
seed-ball seed is intensely in¬ 
teresting for old or young, 
i There is the widest range of 
difference in color, shape, and 
general characteristics between 
the different seedlings; every 
one is more or less unlike every 
other. Great success has alrea¬ 
dy attended the attempt to improve this valuable es¬ 
culent, and the end is not yet—many varieties will yet, 
be found which will bring a golden harvest to the for¬ 
tunate growers, and prove ofinestimable value to the 
world. YOU may be the lucky one—and even your boy 
may make his fortune growing these. Let him try it.

I HAVE A HOST OF TESTIMONIALS FROM THIS FAMOUS SEED. 
ffm M. Johnson, of Tampico, Ind. writes:—“The packet of Po¬ 
tato-Seed you sent me did well. Some look like the peach-blow— 
some are a beautiful pale pink, large and long for a seedling the 
first year; they are beauties. Some large white, purple eyes—some 
round, pale red, 80 to 50 in a hill—some pale blue—some white, flat, 
and 3 inches or more lone,—two hills of black potatoes, etc., etc. 
I never saw so many different colors and shapes. 
A gem among radishes. It has won golden opinions 
in all sections of the country. The illustration is per¬ 
fect from nature, and will give some idea of their great 
beauty. It is absolutely the earliest radish in cultiva¬ 
tion • their shape is perfectly globular, with rich, deep 
scarlet top; equally desirable for the market or home 
garden. My sales of this famous variety double every 
year. No other radish can compare with it for earli¬ 
ness. It is very tender, and of extra quality.

This is a characteristic of the squash. The flesh is 
deep orange, cavity small. Nothing excels it for pies.
